DETER Federation

The DETER federation architecture is a model and mechanism for creating experiments that span multiple testbeds. We have written several papers about the architecture. This site is the home for our prototype implementation, fedd.

The Current version is fedd 3.20.

Fedd 3.20 includes ABAC support. Fedd users will need to run a command to convert their default credentials.
